Chapter 19: A New Journey

On an official road stretching forward along the foot of the mountain, an army of several thousand men was hurrying forward. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Although most of the officers and soldiers were already tired, and although the sound of fighting had faded away, they still did not dare to relax for a moment.

Pang Yue rode on his horse, looking at the sunset that had been covered by the green mountains in the distance, and all kinds of feelings came to his heart. There are too many things that have happened today, Huang Degong was killed in the middle, the Ming army was defeated, and many generals in Huang Zhen surrendered to the enemy, and the huge pressure generated by this series of tragedies almost overwhelming people. In retrospect, there were a lot of troubles along the way. When the Flying Tiger Battalion and the Zhenwei Battalion withdrew from Ogi Port, although the main force of Jiannu could not withdraw from the chaotic battlefield, a small group of Jiannu attacked the Ming troops of these two battalions, causing casualties and falling behind some Ming officers and soldiers, and finally were repulsed due to numerical inferiority. However, fortunately, now that he has temporarily gotten rid of the main force of Jiannu, this can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune.

From today on, I will start to take charge of myself and fight for the Chinese nation in this era of endless disputes and tragedies! That's a lot of work! However, thinking about the original history, the suffering suffered by the Chinese nation during this period, I have no second choice. Because, I am a Han Chinese, and what flows in my body is the blood of China! Since God has given me such a chance, I have to do something for this suffering nation! As soon as he thought of this, Pang Yue's heart was filled with a sense of sacred mission.

"Where have we been?" Pang Yue asked one of the soldiers beside him. This time, Pang Yue specially dispatched some officers and soldiers who were familiar with the terrain to act as scouts, and left another one by his side so that he could ask at any time.

The soldier looked at the surrounding scenery and said respectfully: "If you go back to your lordship, this is still the territory of Taiping Mansion." As long as we walk a few more miles and cross a mountain pass, we will be able to get out of the boundary of Taiping Mansion and enter Ningguo Mansion. ”

Pang Yue nodded with satisfaction: "Yes." What is your name? Where is home? Who else is in the house? ”

"Back to the adult, the little one's name is Jin Er, who was originally a hunter in the vicinity, after my father went up the mountain to hunt and fell off the cliff last year, there was no one at home, and the little one went to join the army." Jin Er's tone was a little sad.

"Life is impermanent, don't think about the sad things of the past. Would you like to be my own soldier? Seeing that this little soldier spoke freely and was clever, Pang Yue had the heart to solicit.

"Adults look up to villains too much, this ..... this is the honor of villains!" Jin Er looked very excited.

Pang Yue smiled: "Okay." However, your name is not atmospheric enough, you are now a sergeant of the Ming Dynasty, and you must pay attention to the word 'brave' when marching and fighting, how about you call Jin Yong in the future? ”

"The villain Jin Yong thanks the name of the adult!"

"Brother Xu, it's almost in the territory of Ning Guofu, why don't you go to the front and find an open place for the soldiers to rest?" Pang Yue saw that many soldiers in the queue were showing fatigue, so he discussed with Wang Dongri.

"Well, that's fine. It's almost a day's worth of travel today, and I haven't even had time to eat lunch, and if I don't take a break, I'm afraid I won't be able to fight back when I encounter bandits," Wang Dongri nodded and said.

"That's good. Zibin, let's do what I just said in a while! Seeing that Wang Dongri agreed, Pang Yue gave the order.

**********

Nearly half an hour later, Pang Yue and Wang Dongri chose an open valley as their camping place. Due to the attack of Jiannu during the retreat, the Ming army was forced to abandon a large amount of logistics supplies, so the existing tents must not be enough for everyone to live in. But fortunately, it was summer at this time, and the sky was still beautiful, so it was not impossible to deal with it all night in the wilderness. …,

When Pang Yue was discussing the matter of camping, Ma Yuancheng came to report: the scouts patrolling the periphery had caught more than a dozen suspicious people, and this group refused to reveal their identities, but an old man led by one wanted to see Pang Yue by name.

"And such a thing?" Although Pang Yue was puzzled, he still decided to meet these people first, "Bring them over!" ”

After a while, the dozen or so people were brought over. I saw an old man at the head of the sixtieth century, with white hair but still in good spirits and high spirits, and he knew at a glance that he was not an ordinary person. The rest of the dozen or so people are all young and strong, and they are powerful, like the old man's guards.

After seeing Pang Yue, the old man said with a little anger: "General Pang, can you let your soldiers return the luggage to the old man now?" ”

Only then did Pang Yue discover that the team of scouts who escorted these people over were carrying several large burdens and a few Ming army-style waist knives, which seemed to have been "captured" from these people.

"Keep the knife and give them back the rest!" Pang Yue said to the chief of the scouts, and then looked at the old man with a smile: "Old man, we are the Ming Dynasty official army, and we naturally won't want your luggage." However, do you always have to explain why you are following our army with a knife! ”

The old man snorted with his nose, and didn't pay attention to Pang Yue's words, but took out a few things from a bag and put them on.

The red official robe, the black gauze hat, and the peacock embroidered on the patch on the chest, after the old man was neatly dressed, startled everyone present. Obediently, this is the costume of the Ming Dynasty and the three civil officials!

"Who is this lord?" Pang Yue didn't doubt the authenticity of the old man's official uniform, there are basically no people who dare to pretend to be an official in these years, not to mention that the current official uniform is not as easy to get as a big cap in later generations, listening to him just feel strange, how does this old man know himself?

"The old man is the left attendant of the military department, Zhu Dadian! There is a seal to prove it! The old man held the official seal wrapped in silk cloth in his right hand, and his voice was full of anger, "The old man saw General Pang in the camp a few days ago, and he also heard the introduction of the Duke of Yasuko. It's just that General Pang may not have seen the old man. ”

This is, Wang Dongri also walked over, and after seeing the old man, he was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly saluted: "Humble Wang Dongri, I have seen Lord Zhu." ”

Wang Dongri originally met with Deng Linzu and Zhu Dadian and his entourage in Taiping Mansion, so he naturally recognized Zhu Dadian, and now he is also bending down to salute, it seems that there will be no mistake! Pang Yue dispelled the last trace of doubt in his heart, and also looked deeply at Zhu Dadian. There is no way, although he is also a third-grade military attachΓ©, but the Ming Dynasty used civil affairs to control the military, let alone a civilian official who served in the military department? Since you have come to this world, you have to abide by the rules of this world!

"Humble Pang Yue, see Lord Zhu!"

"Hahaha, the two generals don't have to be polite!" Zhu Dadian twisted his beard and smiled.

It turned out that this morning the camp of the Ming army was in chaos, and generals such as Du Hongyu, Yu Yongshou, and Su Yangxing surrendered one after another when they saw that the general trend had gone, and there were countless followers. Zhu Dadian couldn't suppress the situation with the hat of the left squire of the military department, but some arrogant people with courage wanted to catch him to ask for merit and reward. Helpless, Zhu Dadian had no choice but to escape under the escort of his henchmen and keep running south, but he didn't expect to catch up with Pang Yue and Wang Dongri's men here.

Pang Yue still has a good impression of Zhu Dadian, although this is the first time they have met, but he knows that although this Lord Zhu has such and such small problems, greed for money, good face, etc., but he is still unambiguous in terms of national integrity. In the original history, since Huang Degong died and Hongguang was captured, Zhu Dadian returned to his hometown Jinhua to continue to persist in the struggle against the Qing Dynasty, and successively served as a bachelor of the Lu Jianguo regime and the Longwu Dynasty. In March of the second year of Longwu (1646), the Jiannu soldiers came to Jinhua City, and the traitor Ruan Dacheng sent messengers to recruit surrender. After holding out for more than 20 days, Jinhua City was broken by Jiannu, and all the female dependents of Zhu Dadian's family committed suicide by throwing themselves into the well, and Zhu Dadian gathered with his descendants and guests in the powder magazine to detonate and martyr. After that, in order to vent his anger, Jiannu slaughtered the city in Jinhua City for three days. …,

"Master Zhu, many of the soldiers under him were offended just now! Don't be offended. When the first tent was set up, Pang Yue invited Zhu Dadian in and said sincerely.

"General Pang said seriously, although the old man is a civil minister, he also serves in the military department, and he is not ignorant of things in the army. The sergeants under General Pang are loyal to their duties, what is the crime? Hehe, it's okay, it's okay," Zhu Dadian said briskly, "A few days ago, I heard about the prestige of General Pang in the Yasukuni Gong camp, and I went deep into the tiger's den many times to take the head of the enemy general, a rare young hero!" ”

"Where, where, it's actually difficult to live up to the fame, Lord Zhu praised it falsely!" Hearing Zhu Dadian say this, Pang Yue himself was a little embarrassed, "I don't know where Old Master Zhu will go after this change?" ”

Hearing this, Zhu Dadian's face suddenly darkened, and he sighed and said: "Alas, the Son of Heaven is in trouble, the Duke of Yasukuni sacrificed his life for the country, and the old man, as an official of the imperial court, can only flee in the wilderness, which is really a negative grace!" Now, the things in Jiangbei are no longer possible, and the old man has no other luxuries, so he has returned to his hometown for the rest of his life! ”

"Don't be discouraged, in the south, I still have thousands of miles of fertile land and tens of millions of soldiers and civilians. King Gui, King Lu and other royal relatives are also still there. And that Jiannu, is just a tribe of wild people, saying that the Hu people have no luck for a hundred years, as long as my Ming army and people can unite as one and follow the story of King Goujian, he will come back one day and recover the mountains and rivers! Pang Yue hurriedly comforted. Just now, he had already thought about it, first to have a good relationship with Zhu Dadian, and this time he must keep Zhu Dadian by his side, and he can't let him go back to Jinhua. Now that Zhu Yujian, the king of Tang and the future Emperor of Longwu, should have arrived in Hangzhou, it is best to take Zhu Dadian to Hangzhou to support Emperor Longwu at that time. With Zhu Dadian's qualifications and meritorious service, the secretary of the Cabinet University and the Military Department will definitely not be able to run. In this way, he will have someone who can speak in the DPRK and in the military department. When the time comes, he and Wang Dongri will expand their army in the name of the Ministry of War, coupled with Zhu Dadian's previous relationship network, the Longwu Dynasty will definitely not be covered by Zheng Zhilong, the traitor and pirate leader.

Of course, Zhu Dadian would not know what Pang Yue was thinking at the moment, and after listening to Pang Yue's generous speech, he couldn't help nodding his head: "If the civil and military generals of the Ming Dynasty are as confident as Pang Shenjiang, Jiannu will not be so rampant!" Well, by the way, what are the plans of General Pang? ”

Pang Yue had already thought of a set of rhetoric in advance: "I heard that Lord Yuanfu and the Queen Mother have gone to Hangzhou, and King Lu has also arrived in Hangzhou, so I am going to go there first and make plans in the future." Dare to ask Lord Zhu to accompany me, how about it? ”

Seeing that Zhu Dadian didn't speak, Pang Yue continued: "It's an eventful time now, and the road is not very smooth! If Lord Zhu is allowed to return to his hometown alone and there is something missing, then his humble position will be impossible to redeem! Moreover, if you have the courage to say something rebellious, Lord Zhu is an important minister of the court, even if you want to return to your hometown, you have to meet the Queen Mother to return the letter so that you don't lose the courtesy of the ministers! If you don't say a word, you will say goodbye, which will inevitably leave a handle for the young people. ”

"General Pang is right!" Zhu Dadian finally smiled and nodded, "Well, the old man's old bones will follow General Pang to Hangzhou, but I have to worry about General Pang along the way!" ”

"Where, where. Mr. Zhu can walk with the lowly position, which is the supreme glory of the lowly position. Seeing that Zhu Dadian began to set up, Pang Yue was suddenly full of joy.

"My lord! Guerrilla Zhang has an urgent military situation to report! It didn't take long for the voice of Ma Yuancheng, the captain of the pro-soldier who was waiting outside the tent, to pull Pang Yue back from the relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.
